Rush Realizes How Democrats May Actually End Up Impeaching Trump, Immediately Sends Out a Warning

Rush Limbaugh argued on his radio program this week that the true goal of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation is to impeach President Donald Trump, and one way that could occur is for Democrats to flip Florida politically and retake control of the House of Representatives.

A caller asked Limbaugh on Tuesday, how Mueller’s investigation can be stopped.

“You’re not going to stop it,” the talk show host replied. “But the Mueller investigation is predicated on the Democrats winning control of the House and then running the articles of impeachment. If you want to stop Mueller, don’t let the Democrats win the House.”

The Justice Department cannot prosecute the president; however, a finding by Mueller that Trump obstructed justice or made false statements regarding contacts with Russia could be used as grounds for Congress to begin impeachment proceedings.

A majority vote is required for an impeachment to succeed in the House. If it is approved by that body, a two-thirds vote is needed in the Senate to convict a president and remove him or her from office.

Limbaugh argued the House impeachment alone would damage Trump politically in such a way that he could not seek re-election, thereby making him a lame duck president.

The conservative commentator, whose nationally syndicated program originates in Florida, said the Sunshine State could be the key to the Democrats flipping the House in 2018.

“Remember the big hurricane that wiped out Puerto Rico? The publisher of a newspaper in Puerto Rico is reporting that, by their count, 320,000 Puerto Ricans have immigrated to the United States,” Limbaugh recounted on his Monday show. About 70 percent of them went to Florida.

The publisher went on to estimate that by the end of 2018, there could be nearly 400,000 to 500,000 Puerto Rican immigrants coming to the mainland.

“If 60% of them register Democrat, then Florida ever voting for a Republican presidential candidate may be lost for as long as we can see,” Limbaugh said.

“And should this number of Puerto Ricans moving to Florida impact congressional elections, say, in the midterms, well, then, if you have the Democrats after the 2018 midterms running the House, then impeachment becomes a much more relevant thing,” he added.

Limbaugh hammered the Mueller investigation on Tuesday, saying, “The only crimes he can find are the crimes that have occurred as a result of his bogus investigation.”

“They know there was no collusion with Russia. They know that the collusion with Russia occurred with Hillary and her campaign and their law firm purchasing and commissioning the Trump dossier,” Limbaugh stated.

“The FBI is there (in the Russia investigation) for one reason, to get rid of Trump,” he asserted.
